Brunner Glacier

Brunner Glacier (85°14′S 175°38′W) is a narrow steep-walled glacier 2 nautical miles (4 km) long, descending the west slope of the Cumulus Hills between Landry Bluff and Halfmoon Bluff to enter Shackleton Glacier. It was named by the Texas Tech Shackleton Glacier Expedition (1964–65) for Staff Sergeant Donald R. Brunner, a member of the U.S. Army Aviation Detachment which supported the expedition.[1]
